  • Publication number: 20150065853
    Abstract: A system and method for preprocessing magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) data of brain tissue for pattern-based diagnostics is disclosed. The MRS preprocessing system includes an MRS preprocessing module that executes an operation that normalizes MRS spectrum data, recalibrates and scales the normalized MRS spectrum data, and then renormalizes the scaled MRS spectrum data. The resulting preprocessed MRS data is used to assist in identifying abnormalities in tissues shown in MRS scans.
    Type: Application
    Filed: September 5, 2014
    Publication date: March 5, 2015
    Applicant: The United States of America, as represented by the Secretary, Dept. of Health and Human Services
    Inventors: Jon G. Wilkes, Dan A. Buzatu, Pierre Alusta, Bruce Pearce, Ryan M. Kretzer, Inessa IM, Richard D. Beger
